Major release of Public Transit API following refactoring of all endpoints to a new format.

Introduced new road layers in Platform Data Extension

Below you can find detailed information on these major improvements of the HERE Platform for Business services:

Custom Route Extension API

Version 1.0

CRE allows for calculating routes with custom deviations and preferences. The service is available through a routing interface that connects with the HLP Router for the standard route calculation, but provides custom routes while taking into account all custom data.

Geocoder API

Version 6.2.135

Added support of small municipalities for the district level of the administrative hierarchy in Peru.

Updated Armenia maps to include additional administrative levels and the local language.

Public Transit API

Version 3.0.0

This is a major release following refactoring of all endpoints to a new format. In other words, the API endpoint format have been changed from https://transit.api.here.com/metarouter/rest/routeservice/v2/<resource>to:://transit.api.here.com/v3/<resource>

Key changes are:

all endpoints now start with version, that is /v3/, followed by a resource name;

the versioning now applies to the whole API and not for individual endpoints;

the documentation versioning will correspond to the API versions.

However for now the coming releases will continue to support all deprecated endpoints (with old parameter names).
